Answer:

20.47 m/s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s² = a

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{24^2-0^2}{2\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow s=29.3577\ m

Total height of the fall is 29.3577 m

Height the ball reached above the building is 29.3577-8=21.3577\ m

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 21.3577=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{21.3577\times 2}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow t=2.0866\ s

Time taken to reach the point from where the ball was thrown is 2.0866 s

This will also be the time it takes the ball to reach the maximum height

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow u=\dfrac{s-\frac{1}{2}at^2}{t}\\\Rightarrow u=\dfrac{21.3577-\frac{1}{2}\times -9.81\times 2.0866^2}{2.0866}\\\Rightarrow u=20.47\ m/s

The initial velocity with which the rock was thrown was 20.47 m/s

Answer:

Multiple answers:

1. Power output P=17.59W

2.Intensity 160m I=17.6W/m^{2}

3. dB = 77.3

4. f=178.5 Hz

Explanation:

First one comes from the expression

I=\frac{P}{4\pi r^{2} }

where<em> I </em>is the intensity, <em>P </em>is the power and <em>r </em>is the radio of the spherical wave, or in this case, the distance <em>x</em>. I solved for the Power by multiplying Intensity with the area (4\pi x^{2}

Second one is done with:

\frac{I_{2} }{I_{1} } =\frac{x^{2}_{1} }{x^{2} _{2}}

Solving for Intensity 2, the result mentioned.

The third is simply computed with

dB=10*log\frac{I}{10^{-12} }

And finally the last one is done with doppler effect, taking into account the speed of the air as in 10ºC 337m/s.

f=f_{initial} *(\frac{s+v_{receiver} }{s+v_{source} } )

Where <em>Finitial</em> is the frequency emitted and <em>s</em> is the speed of the sound. The wind blowing in positive is, in principle, going away of the observer.

Explanation:

From Ohm's law,

V = IR

Solving for I,

I = V/R

= (230 V)/(25 ohms)

I need help with this problem :(​
Reil [10]

Answer:

it tells you that the speed increases until about 20 seconds then keeps a steady pace for 20 seconds then the speed drops and stops at 55 seconds in the process.

Find the instantaneous acceleration at t=ls for an object moving along a straight axis with velocity function:
Maru [420]
The answer is A.
Explanation:
We know that the average acceleration a for an interval of time Δt is expressed as:

a = Δv
Δt
where Δv is the change in velocity that occurs during Δt.
e formula for the instantaneous acceleration a is almost the same, except that we need to indicate that we're interested in knowing what the ratio of Δv to Δt approaches as Δt approaches zero.

We can indicate that by using the limit notation.

So, the formula for the instantaneous acceleration is:

a = lim Δv
Δt→0 Δt
